Cake & Presents

#minionmania continues with the birthday cake!






The wind kept blowing the candles out, but we finally got them all lit at the same time so he could blow them out!

I'm so happy to have some wonderful photos of us of this great moment!



Finally...presents! Connor's reaction to presents was the most adorable and funny thing.  He's usually more excited with the idea of opening gifts than actually seeing what's inside and playing with it.  This is the first time that he had a real reaction to what was inside and it was the most precious thing ever.  I'm so glad I have videos of it because it's something I want to treasure forever.

He actually "read" a couple of the cards which was also really cute!

When he opened every gift, his reaction was, "Whoa!" with shrieking and yelling!  Everyone was cracking up because he was just so funny and enthusiastic about everything!

His obvious favorite was the Transformer that he's been talking about for the last week.  Great Uncle Stan didn't even know he wanted one, but he picked a great gift because Connor was obsessed from the moment he ripped off the paper!



Almost instantly, he opened the Transformer, thanked everyone for his gifts, and asked to go to bed.  The poor guy was worn out.  Of course, he insisted on taking the Transformer to bed with him.  We could here the little clicking noises from our bedroom as he played and fell asleep with it.  He was so exhausted that I could hardly even get him to talk to me about what a great day he had!

The Birthday Party

Connor was busy playing baseball & bubbles at the beginning of the party, so I have a lot of that on video.  I tried to get some photos of everyone else before things got too chaotic with the food.

Caylee loves her accessories!






Rae & Caylee had a lot of playing time while they watched the boys play sports

They reminded me of two little old ladies at the racetrack or something :)


Everyone loved their Minion glasses!









Ryan was like the big brother of the party, so the boys enjoyed playing and hanging on him all night!

A break for pizza and fruit...

Daddy would be proud of his little golfer (in a dress)!  She can't walk, but she loved that golf club!
